Abstract:
With the development of mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) pathogenesis research,the dynamic observation of changes of cytokines on judgement of the infection of mycoplasma is of certain guiding significance.Domestic and foreign studies showed that MP infection was closely related with IL-17 and its receptor.IL-17 and its receptor may be involved in neutrophil recruitment,and in resistance to MP infection on the immune response.In this paper,the relationship between IL-17and its recepter and mycoplasma infection are reviewed.
